The waited could've been a bit nicer but, it is what it is. My husband and I kept getting help from another waitress because, we couldn't find ours. That 15 gratuity should've gone to the second waitress

The food tasted good and was served hot. Our server, Courtney, was very attentive as my wife is vision impaired. Courtney even held the door open for us when we were leaving.

How is this place not 300 people deep in line at all times? One of the best low country boils I've ever had. Walking in and seeing the tables covered in paper lets you know what you are in for. Great food all around, my only problem is I can't eat everything in one sitting.

I've been driving by for years and my best friend and I had time to stop in for lunch. A funky joint for sure - I dig the signatures and writing all over the place. The fresh seasoned cheesy bread was an excellent touch as soon as we sat down. Our raw oysters were really tatsy, we didnt bother to crack the Hienz cocktail sause, it was just really odd IMO. I'd love to see something made in-house. We got a pound of craws, snow crab, and the scallops, Cajun and hot. The seasoning was right on the money. The scallops were a bit over cooked but I'm more of a seared scallop kinda guy. The corn, potatoes and sausage spot on. We feasted and we were satisfied.
